Fjordal

In the shadow of King Olaf Tryggvason's iron rule, you establish and manage a Viking settlement along a Norwegian fjord during the tumultuous year of 955. Your survival depends on constructing authentic Norse buildings, organizing your people's labor, and harvesting the resources necessary to meet the king's exacting demands—failure invites severe punishment. As seasons shift and winters threaten your community's survival, you'll forage for provisions ranging from foraged mushrooms that offer fleeting boosts to more substantial foodstuffs that provide lasting sustenance, all while managing scarcity and planning for leaner times ahead. The dual pressure of satisfying an autocratic ruler while keeping your village fed and functional creates an ongoing struggle where each decision shapes your settlement's fate and, eventually, might grant you the strength to challenge the king's dominion.
